Autism - Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia

Magic The Gathering has recently confirmed their newest Plainswalker, Narset as being on the autistic spectrum. In response to this I feel that the League, should also have a champion that autistic individuals, like my self, can identify with.

Champions such as, , , , , , , , and come close to properly representing our autistic brothers and sisters, but don't quite fit the cigar.

I was thinking that this autistic champion should be a top laner, that way he or she would not have to deal with a stressful social environment, until team fights start. or he or she could be like , or that way he or she would not have to deal with the stressful social environments at all!

I was hoping that we could have an open discussion about a new autistic champion!

As an Autistic person, I say no. Pop culture makes enough mockery of us already. Also, your examples of champions who "come close," come close to an insult.

there shouldn't be a autistic champ in LOL since the champion in LOL are to be considered the strongest most heroic (or evil) fighters/mages from there regions on runeterra the chances of a autistic person being able to be the best a region of the planet has to offer is slim to none that would be like putting a autistic person on a NFL team and exspecting them to do well......are there even any Professional lvl sports players that are autistic? would u put a autistic person in the regular Olympics or the special Olympics? all tho i do feel u have a credible argument for having one the rational and logical side of ur argument is missing a bit of a valid point and this is my opinion since i speak only for my self not to mention that a single game of LOL for autistic champion would be to much for them to handle since if it was real it would be a stressful social environment which is where autistic ppl tend to do very poorly and regress to a state that would make them nearly useless

And here, ladies and gentleman, we have what we like to call an assbag who likes to passively assault a large group of people. They are very common in League of Legends, and they may insult anyone from people with disabilities to homosexuals and transgender people. They enjoy putting others down and hounding a group of people because they are different, when really they are just trying to keep their own self-esteem up. Some of them may even consider themselves funny, or they may think they are good jokers. Do not make these kinds of people happy, as they serve no purpose to our community and if they were Velkoz deleted, no one would miss them because they are complete and utter assholes.

Okay, okay, it's easy to make fun of this idea, we get it, but that is just mean.

You could be describing a large number of people who commented here. Since I was the last one who commented, I'll assume you're talking about me, and I honestly don't mind being called an asshole since I am one (even I can't stand me sometimes), but if you're talking about someone besides the last person who commented, please quote them.

Tell me, which of your comments is this a response to, Lcifer?

I dont really see the point of making a champion autistic. It could easily generate a million other problems. What happens if the champ isnt viable and they have all that nonsense to deal with from would be rages accusing them of purposely making the autistic champ inferior. Or the million other possible illness and disabilities out there seeking representation.

Instead why not make awareness skins based of different illness and disabilities out there and riot can donate the proceeds to the respective charity. Maybe like 4 champs get breast cancer awareness skins. Another 4 get something for autism. etc

Everyone reading the comment section, please note that this whole argument could have been avoided if Lcifer kept quiet about the "reply" button that I'm using automatically quoting him. He's making this much longer than me quoting him once and moving on ever would have. :P
